Product Description

The BNC Adapter Board for the Analog Discovery is intended to be used with the Analog Discovery™ tool to enable the use of standard BNC-terminated test leads and probes. It provides BNC terminations to each of the two oscilloscope channels on the Analog Discovery. Each channel of the oscilloscope can be selected as AC or DC coupled by adjusting the jumper that is located behind that channel's BNC input connector. In addition, the two AWG channels are also equipped with BNC terminations, and each channel can have either the 50-ohm or the 0-ohm termination selected. This enables the user to match the Analog Discovery's output impedance with either standard 50-ohm test leads or to be directly tied to the lead.

conveniant connections

this product works well with some Tektronix probes i still have after 30 years it's nice to have wave generator signal outputs at the same time as scope inputs off the same card.

very handy add on to extend power of Analog Discovery

Coupling the Analog Discovery with external components such as other scopes and op amp prototype boards is much easier with BNC connectivity. Easier than wiring up my own connectors and interface.

Good, easier AC/DC selection and 0/50ohm ouput

Posted by Brendan on 4th Nov 2016

A good product and probably a must have.

It would be better if it was easier to change the AC/DC coupling and 0/50ohm output options. It feels very clunky to have to move the jumpers. A slide switch would be so much better.

Also a a slide switch for single/double ended inputs would be good.

Having it packaged in a nice enclosure that mates nicely with the Analog Discovery 2 would be nice too.

Having all the inputs at the front would be a bonus, but I can see why it is the way it is. Maybe a variant in a trapazoid shpae, either with BNCs all on one side, or two on each side of the multipin connector?

Should have been included

Almost essential! Using real probes cannot be underestemated. Also easy to enable DC/AC on inputs and 50ohm output resistance on outputs.

Beware: the wiers does not continue after the BNCs, so you cannot daisychain another or use the provided wiers as normal. (Only logic analyzer and trigger are passed to the multipin contact)

All in all, this is essential to get everything out of the analog discovery. Should have been included in the box!

It works as advertsed

Posted by John Dammeyer on 19th Aug 2016

There's nothing wrong with this in the sense that it provides access to the terminals using BNC Scope probes and BNC Cables for the AWG. That and all the digital I/O and adjustable power supplies.
But if you look at a scope that includes these features the connectors all point the same way.
That's where this product should be redesigned.
I'd rather pay $10 more and have the cables all come out the same end so the entire unit could be packaged into some sort of box. Even a 3D printed box where the STL file is provided as part of the documentation.

Great price

At first I did not believe it when this product was added to my cart at no charge, then I had to place my order immediately. It works just fine for what I need here.

Product is great, shipping sucks!

Posted by Erik Burman on 2nd May 2016

The board is working well. It's feels more like a bench top oscilloscope using the good quality probes. But honestly, Can't you folks provide cheaper shipping options? FedEx shipping nearly doubles the cost of the product I'm purchasing. How about providing USPS or other cheaper options? It would be much appreciated.

Differential Inputs to Single-ended Inputs

Posted by Ron Nueda on 14th Apr 2016

It is nice and sturdy but since it changes the differential inputs into single-ended, it would have limited applications in studying power electronics. It would be hard to view the waveforms for both the high side and low side switches of smps at the same time.

BNC adapter

Posted by Grady S on 2nd Apr 2016

This and good x10 probes are essential elements for best performance of either Discovery 1 or 2. Easy to use and seems to have all necessary features.

Appears to be fairly strong. It will take a few tests to see if it will meet the demands. Overall the product is adequate, meets my requirements and is well designed and built.
